Beautiful work K. Does the coup mark on his face mean he was touched or he counted coup?
Artist Reply: Cindy, it means that he Counted Coup. I wish Art Wanted had an easy way to make links. If you go to my blog, there is a link that tells about counting coup. I'm sure you know about it but others don't
